weird noise?
2000 Honda Accord EX-V6 56000km
It sounds similar to the alternator whine you get from your speakers when you have a bad ground, except its coming from under the hood. Can't tell where it is coming from, either from firewall side of engine or passenger side. Changes pitch slightly when rpm's increase.

I was gonna say fluid in power steering pump is low, but isn't that on the driver's side?

Re: weird noise?
I don't know if Accord's have them but, my CR-V had a whining noise as well
and ended up being a A/C idler pulley bearing. Got the part at the Acura dealer for around $35. Took about 30 minutes to install and a skinned knuckle or two :-) "Happy The Clown" <atombomb@my.pants> wrote in message news:44a6d53c$0$15023$a82e6bb9@orc.meganetnews.com ... > 2000 Honda Accord EX-V6 56000km > It sounds similar to the alternator whine you get from your speakers when > you have a bad ground, except its coming from under the hood.

Re: weird noise?
It's an alternator. the delphi units on the v-6 are famous for going
south.
